Our work
Research
Published by high school fellows
Our main focus is providing research opportunities to driven high school students from around the world, supported by professors, a grants team, and a publishing assistance unit. Fellows research any topic they wish, as long as it relates to policy, politics, law, or the economy.
Every fellow is expected to publish at least once during their one-year term — on news sites, in academic journals, or through the Institution. Work published here stays available after a fellow's term ends.
